I've got a 755CDV and Win95...
I've used three different types of trackpads with the system (ALPS
GlidePoint, Cirque GlidePoint and the Touche' pad and they all work fine
(tapping to select, etc.) I like the Touche' the best.
I've never loaded a driver or even opened the Mouse control panel except to
change the tracking speed...
I can use both the TPIII and the trackpad at the same time...
I guess this plug-n-pray stuff really works ;]
